Tax Services

Helping you to stay compliant and never pay more tax than you have to.

The reality is that taxes are not simple, and having proper advice and guidance, cannot be overstated enough. No one wants to pay more tax than they need to. We have a highly experienced team (including an ex HMRC Tax Inspector) who will help you identify opportunities to reduce your tax bill and make your business more profitable.

Self-Assessment Tax Returns

One of our qualified, experienced experts will work with you to complete and submit your tax return (no matter how complex) to HMRC on time. Our team will ensure you do not incur late filing penalties and will let you know how much tax you owe.

Share Schemes

These are a great way to award and incentivise employees, directors and non-executives. There are a variety of share schemes available, such as EMIs, which can give you and your employees tax advantages. We will help you to identify and implement the right share scheme to suit your business needs.

Tax Health Checks

To help protect you from tax enquiries, we have developed PAYE and VAT health checks. Our team of experts will complete these with you to ensure that you are complying with the law.

Being both an American and British Citizen with a UK limited company that conducts 100% of its business in the Republic of Ireland, means I have to worry about tax and accountancy compliance for all three countries. However, the team at Raffingers has been extremely helpful in supporting me by taking the lead in tax discussions with my other accountants and communicating the various options to me, allowing me to focus more of my time on growing the business. Not only is Raffingers quick and professional, but I am always kept up to date with the latest tax legislation and potential impacts to the business. ”
